SMART / CONNECTED CARS

TODAY TOMORROW

The market

potential for

purpose-built

Internet solutions for

private transport is

large.

– Prototypes are already driving around

the countryside and cities of Asia,

Europe and the US.

– They go a step further than today’s cars →

the driver will essentially become a passenger.

– Infotainment coupled with smart

entertainment offerings will thus become ever

more important in the future.

– The driver will rely on a “robot” that is

connected and observes the

car’s environment.

– Driver assistance systems are already

performing important actions or supporting the

driver (lane departure warnings, handling

control systems and hazard warning functions,

as well as smart crosswind stabilization,

high-beam and driving lights assistants).

– The first driving assistance functions of the

Car-to-X generation – via which cars can

communicate wirelessly with each other

and the outside world – are already being

used today.1

– They will increasingly become standard

features in cars.

Market potential:

safety, comfort, information, entertainment

Global market potential for

connected car functions

– Internet-based functions in cars can do more than just

improve safety.

– According to car manufacturer Mercedes-Benz, the customer will be

connected with everything that is important to them

(not just with the car).

– Connected cars offer new solutions designed to address customer

needs that were always there, but appeared infeasible due the lack

of suitable automotive technology.

– Car manufacturers are promising even greater comfort – e.g. with

fully or partially autonomous cars – interactive infotainment, and

smart entertainment features.

→ There is considerable market potential for purpose-built Internet solutions

for private transport (see chart on the right).

→ According to BI Intelligence, connected car services are likely to generate

revenues of up to USD 152 billion by 2020.

Purchasing criterion:

“New means everything that makes your life better.”

Connected cars tend to be

more important for premium

brand drivers.

– Steering, braking, accelerating – Connected cars can help drivers

with these, or even take these off their hands altogether.

– BMW talks of “intuitive innovations” that connect drivers and their

cars even more closely to the outside world.1

– Volkswagen has encapsulated this in their “Think New” slogan:

“New means everything that makes your life better.” 2

– Everything is focused on the immense range of additional benefits

that new technologies can create.

Survey of 3,303 car owners (private & company cars), who drive a new car or are planning to buy a new car soon.

→ According to survey results (LSP Digital), connectivity has become an

important criterion when buying a car.

→ For more than half of BMW and Audi drivers, car connectivity is a decisive

factor in their next purchase (see chart on the right).

Brand differentiation through new driving experience

– Car makers that want to position themselves for the long term in the

fiercely contested market should already be looking at intelligent

connectivity technologies as a key strategic element.

– In addition to measures aimed at the driver, such technologies focus

in particular on the after-sales and brand experiences.

– By 2020, one in five cars is likely to be connected to the Internet, and

drivers will spend an average of 50 minutes a day in their vehicles.

– According to McKinsey, music services and tourist information

systems, for example, could represent a lucrative business area,

while also contributing to brand differentiation.

– However, car manufactures should gear themselves towards shorter

development cycles and specialized suppliers.

Specialized suppliers: Basis for success

– The market success of a connected car hinges on the quality of the innovations and the benefits they create.

– As a rule, car manufacturers do not produce the networking services themselves, and therefore rely on highly specialized

suppliers with outstanding expertise.

– Many suppliers positioned themselves in this up-and-coming segment at an early stage.

– Experts believe the connectivity trend could lead to a lasting revolution in the supplier industry.

– In addition to well-known suppliers, pure plays have also emerged that are predominantly specialized in car connectivity.

Continental is a perfect example of a long-established

supplier that is well positioned:

– Continental initially became known for its soft rubber

products, in particular tyres.

– According to the company itself, Continental is

researching future mobility issues, and developing

solutions for car connectivity to address all needs.

– Continental now generates a considerable part of its

revenues in the connected cars business.

Other globally active suppliers that dominate the

segment in a similar fashion include:

– Canada’s Magna, known for its desire to make safety

assistance features accessible to more drivers. To this

end, it has developed an innovative camera system

costing less than EUR 100.

– Japan’s Denso, which has a technology that allows

vehicle-to-vehicle communication (V2V). While many

are still discussing this, Denso is already ready to go

into production. Denso has also stressed that the

communication will not stop at V2V. Its V2X system

allows cars to communicate with the road infrastructure.1

Software developers: innovative niche players

Mobileye’s net sales 2011-2014

– Given the immense market potential, the major players currently

do not seem to be greatly troubled by the throng of smaller niche

players in the segment.

– Niche players as suppliers to the suppliers?

Mobileye: a classic example of the genre

– Head office in Jerusalem.

– Undisputed global market leader in the development of driving

assistance systems.

– Innovations such as the mono-camera, System-on-Chip solutions, and

computer vision algorithms.

– Delivers solutions to suppliers such as Autoliv, Delphi and Magna.

– But also delivers to car manufacturers themselves – including BMW, Volvo,

General Motors and Hyundai.

– According to PwC (2015), Mobileye’s success stems from its focus on its

core competence in the niche area of developing collision warning systems.

Smart cars in a connected world

Index concept

Solactive Smart Cars Performance Index

– By 2020 every 5th car will be connected to the Internet.

– According to BI Intelligence, connected car services

could generate revenues of up to USD 152 billion

by 2020.

– According to a survey conducted by statista.com, 67% of

all those surveyed would be prepared to switch car brand

depending on the connectivity functions offered.

– As a rule, car manufacturers do not produce the networking

services themselves, and therefore rely on highly

specialized suppliers with outstanding expertise.

– In addition to well-known suppliers, pure plays have

also emerged that are predominantly specialized in

car connectivity.

– The index tracks the performance of companies with

significant business activity in the connected car industry.

These are companies from the Automobiles & Parts and

Technology sectors; the latter develop connectivity

technologies for the car industry.

– The index comprises the ten largest companies by

market capitalization in each sector (and up to

20 companies).

– Rules-based and transparent index

Most consumers are unaware of the features and services of connected cars. Nevertheless, they would like

entertainment while driving and additional safety features.
